How do I apply for Jobs?

To view a list of Jobs available for application, simply navigate to the 'Available Jobs' page via the accordion side menu.

An example of an 'Available Jobs' page.

This page gives you an overview of all the Jobs you can apply to. You can use the Filter button to filter the Jobs by the date of creation, pay rate, subjects and your degree of qualification. You can also view more details by selecting the Job that you’re interested in. Apply from either the Available Jobspage or the Job’s page itself.

On the application form, you will be asked to fill out a cover letter outlining your suitability for the Job.

Your application will be reviewed by a company Administrator who will opt to either accept or reject your application (you will be notified of the decision via email).

You can view your pending applications by navigating to the ‘Current Applications’ page on the accordion side bar.

Why can't I see any available Jobs?

If you are trying to view available jobs from your login but can't, then it would be best to get in touch with the tutoring agency directly. Agencies have control over the visibility of Jobs and Tutors access to these as well.

Why can’t I access a Job?

There may be times that you are greeted with an ‘Error 403’ page when trying to access a Job from your login. There could several reasons for this - you may have been assigned to a Lesson within a Job, but not to the actual Job itself. Another possibility is that your profile has a ‘Dormant’ status. In situations like this, it would be best to contact an Administrator within your company to look further into this.

How do I add a new Lesson to a Job?

  • Navigate to the 'My Jobs' section and select the relevant Job.

  • Click the Add New Lesson button within the 'Lessons' panel.

  • Fill in the date and times of the Lesson, as well as a short description.

  • If you create a Lesson scheduled in the past, upon submission you will be asked to fill in a Lesson Report that will be sent to the Client.

  • Alternatively, if you create the Lesson scheduled in the future, the Lesson will be created as a ‘Planned’ lesson.

  • To repeat the Lesson, select Actions > Repeat and set the repeat settings for the Lesson.

Where can I find my Lesson schedule?

Your Lesson schedule can found via the 'Calendar' page on the accordion side bar. Here you have the options to view your schedule in a calendar or list view.

How do I mark Lessons as ‘Complete’?

Lessons that have not been marked as ‘Complete’ show up as ‘Awaiting Confirmation’. In order to mark them as completed, you have to simply navigate to the Lesson via the Job's summary page and mark it as ‘Complete’ by selecting the green Complete button.

What if I need to reschedule a Lesson?

In cases like these you can either navigate to your Calendar, find the Lesson you wish to adjust and move it around the Calendar to change its time, or you could navigate to the relevant Lesson's main page before selecting Actions > Edit and adjusting the date/time of the Lesson via the 'Edit Lesson page'.

Why can't I add/edit a lesson?

There are two possible reasons for this, these are:

  • The Lesson is on a paid Invoice or Payment Order. The Invoice or Payment Order has to be marked as void to edit these Lessons.

  • The Job is marked as 'Finished'. The Job has to have any status other than 'Finished' to edit Lessons.

In both cases, you will need to contact an Administrator to resolve the problem.

How do I access the online classroom on a Lesson?

TutorCruncher’s Online Integrations makes teaching Students online even easier. The online tools you use to connect with your students can be accessed from your Tutor Dashboard or via each scheduled lesson.

Access Online integrations via the Lessons summary page.

If you have an upcoming Lesson with a Student that is being hosted online, you can navigate to the Lesson's main summary page and access the online classroom via the blue Join your Lesson with [integration] now button.

Note: This button will only appear within 24 hours of the Lesson's start time.
